No tech guru here, but hope this helps nonetheless...
/workflow/build/Deployment/Node.js | \Web.app ---> Azure(cTM) \user \profile
From your Azure fs,

+ File: .github/workflows/workflow.yml

on: push

jobs:
  build-and-deploy:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    # chkout repo
    - name: 'Checkout Github Action' 
      uses: actions/checkout@master
    
    - name: Setup Node 10.x
      uses: actions/setup-node@v1
      with:
        node-version: '10.x'
    - name: 'npm install, build, and test'
      run: |
        npm install
        npm run build --if-present
        npm run test --if-present
       
    - name: 'Run acct A and publish secret for @Drjacky  Azure/repo'
      uses: azure/webapps-deploy@v2
      with: 
        app-name: node-rn
        publish-profile: ${{ secrets.azureWebAppPublishProfile }}
- .portal, .crypto

Follow these steps to use it on Acct B:

• Download acct A's published profile for WebApp from Portal (Get Publish profile option)
• Define a new secret under Acc B's repository settings, Add secret menu
• Paste the contents for the downloaded publish profile file into the secret's value field
• Now in the workflow file in your branch: .github/workflows/workflow.yml replace the secret for the input publish-profile: of the deploy Azure WebApp action (Refer to the example above)
  Finally,
  usr/cred/Azure.Srvc | usr/profile/etc

• repo.git ▶ .yml, .json, .py
  secrets

• User-level credentials i.e., Azure Service Principal for deployment.

1. Define Secret/vars
2. Settings -> Secrets -> New secret. Provide a secret variable Name, for example 'AZURE_CREDENTIALS'
3. ⮕ az cli
4. cmd/Store/io/value/_Secret_vars
5. Store output as Value of secret variable
   az ad command scopes service principal to a specific resource group...
   {resource-group} within a specific Azure subscription {subscription-id}
   V

$ az ad sp create-for-rbac --name "myApp" --role contributor \
                            --scopes /subscriptions/{subscription-id}/resourceGroups/{resource-group} \
                            --sdk-auth
                            
  # Replace {subscription-id}, {resource-group} "resource, group, details"
  # The command should output a JSON object similar to this:

  {
    "clientId": "<GUID>",
    "clientSecret": "<GUID>",
    "subscriptionId": "<GUID>",
    "tenantId": "<GUID>",
    (...)
  }
